I saw three huge trannies at the theater. They sat in the row in front of me.
They had their hands at their sides all rigid-like, as if they were walking manually. It was notably awkward. How to explain?
Have you ever felt self-conscious because you had a mustard stain on your shirt? Pensive? That's the look all three had in their faces as they joylessly, silently lumbered to their seats.
This was my first encounter with huge, balding trannies in the wild. I didn't expect it to be such a clown show, lol. Made it hard to pay attention in the first 10 minutes of the movie
The Canadian release was initially so limited that I wonder if it was four-walled. That is to say, Toho paid to rent those Cineplex locations for a few hours over a week in exchange for 100% of the gross.
That's only half of what Shin got. I'm pretty surprised considering the praise it received.
Minus One is having far worse legs than Shin did in Japan. Probably a combination of word-of-mouth and Japan possibly getting Godzilla fatigued. Shin was the first new Japanese Godzilla film in over a decade. Since then, they've had a series of CG films (which got theatrical releases in Japan), that anime TV series, the American movies, and now this.
True and Shin was more topical being that it referenced the 3/11 disaster and criticized the government’s response to it. It was a much more politically charged movie for Japanese people in 2016.
And Shin wasn't even as Deep, or Meaningful.
It’s a deep movie, but most baka gaijin got filtered. I think Shin Godzilla has more subtext than Minus One, but Minus One is still an incredible movie. The Tokyo destruction sequences in both movies are some of the greatest Godzilla moments of all time.
It's not that simple. There's also "Hollywood accounting" which probably involves money laundering and tax evasion. It's in their best interest to often report negative or near negative net profits in order to reduce your tax burden. Of course, this doesn't apply to all movies.
It's only made 34mil though. It's the fact that its budget is somehow so low that is what is making its ability to generate relatively large amounts of profit surprising
Imagine how much they could have made if Toho ever took an international movie launch seriously.
It already made profit from it's Japan release, and it has a limited USA release which has netted 34 million. That on top of the 15 million budget means big profit.
God bless shitty Japanese salaries.
If only there were a middle ground? USA pays too much for animators, while Japan works them like slaves.
No on'e saying it's not doing good just that it could be doing even better of Toho wasn't such a shit about international releases. They've always been this way.
34 million off a 10 million isn’t making bank. Now take My Big Fat Greek Wedding. 5 million dollar budget, made 368 million worldwide in 2002. Be like 600 million now.
>USA pays too much for animators
No they don't. The reason modern hollywood CGI is so shit is because producers/directors keep changing their damn minds about what they want up until the last second before release.
A good producer/director has their scripts done in advance and knows how to plan and communicate exavtly what they want to vfx artists, which saves a fortune.

I'm going crazy or there's a new godzilla movie every month, I'm really lost with the franchise, is there any chart to know which movies to follow to be part of the hype?
Women have no soul. They only do things based on how much male attention they'll get. This daft c**t took a picture of herself in a movie theatre after watching a movie targeted towards males for social media clout, instead of just watching the movie and enjoying it.
>World wide: 38 million
It should really be earning a lot more than that. I found it was a much better movie than Oppenheimer and whatever slop that was released this year. Had a better story too and soundtrack. I'll always remember this movie.
Toho basically did zero marketing for this in North America, it's almost completely word-of-mouth. Also it's playing in about 1,000 less theaters than your average Hollywood release. Still a wide release, but 1,000 less theaters means 5,000 less screenings a day, which adds up fast.
>He has also long stated that he would like to make a live-action version of Nausicaa.
He apparently royally pissed off Hayao Miyazaki with his film 'The Eternal Zero' about a kamikaze pilot, so that's never gonna happen.
>He apparently royally pissed off Hayao Miyazaki with his film 'The Eternal Zero' about a kamikaze pilot
lol how?
did it do better at the box office than the wind rises?
>The Eternal Zero has come under criticism for its nationalistic and sympathetic depiction of the Kamikaze pilots. Director Hayao Miyazaki in an interview accused the film of "trying to make a Zero fighter story based on a fictional war account that is a pack of lies". He added that this film was "just continuing a phony myth" and that he had "hated that sort of thing ever since [I] was a kid."
how did he respond when people attacked him over the wind rises?

>"[Horikoshi] was someone who resisted demands from the military...I wonder if he should be liable for anything just because he lived in that period." In an interview with the Asahi Shimbun, Miyazaki said he had "very complex feelings" about World War II since, as a pacifist, he felt militarist Japan had acted out of "foolish arrogance". However, he also said that the Zero plane "represented one of the few things we Japanese could be proud of—[they] were a truly formidable presence, and so were the pilots who flew them".

God bless shitty Japanese salaries.
Godzilla is probably the greatest movie character of all time
S-SOMEBODY STOP HIM!!!!
ITS HAPPENING
legendary slop is trash.
HE CANT OOK!
At this point it'd be better to replace Kong with Captain Marvel and update to the proper Godzilla.
Godzilla Minus Trannies.
Movie is a great troony filter.
Godzilla Minus One win taken from Hollywood

My local kinoplex chain extended the Minus One screenings until December 14.
>mfw the Beyonce movie is still wasting the IMAX screen
>I have to wait 'til the 28th to see it
>"with no signs of slowing down"
>tomorrow is its final day in US theaters
The release window has been extended.
Really?! FRICK YEAH!
YEAH ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU TO NOT GO TO THE THEATER BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO POOR FOR A CAR
In Canada too? The Cineplex website haven't been updated yet, Thursdays is still the last showtime.
The Canadian release was initially so limited that I wonder if it was four-walled. That is to say, Toho paid to rent those Cineplex locations for a few hours over a week in exchange for 100% of the gross.

Cinemas usually update their showings on wednesdays
Japan humiliating Hollywood again.
Last time was that anime movie yeah? They had Covid as an excuse to hide beyond that one, wonder how they'll cope this time.
Two bombs were actually enough.
Deserved. Sometimes, good things still happen.
People wonder why Toho budget is so low. It’d made only 34 million world wide. Unlike every American studio, Toho know how to set a realistic budget
Jap movies always budget for their domestic box office while Hollywood budgets are for the global box office.
It's not that simple. There's also "Hollywood accounting" which probably involves money laundering and tax evasion. It's in their best interest to often report negative or near negative net profits in order to reduce your tax burden. Of course, this doesn't apply to all movies.

No movie with subtitles or dubbing will make bank in the US. Always been that way. Why Toho sets their budgets accordingly
Black person, zoomers watch Friends with subtitles now.
Whats "make bank"? This already made bank
34 million off a 10 million isn’t making bank. Now take My Big Fat Greek Wedding. 5 million dollar budget, made 368 million worldwide in 2002. Be like 600 million now.
Making bank typically means making enough to make a profit

Minus One was written and directed by the same person who led the VFX team.
This is actually the key to success.
Movies should be made with a single vision in mind.
KING OF MONSTERS
FRICK ALL YALL
Girlzilla?
Gamera sisters, our response?
>Gamera
Is this some Ultraman side-character?
No that's Gomora, Cleetus. Gamera is the monster that shits his britches.
So it's from Kamen Rider?
Todaybwe will remind them:
>Gamera is really neat
>Gamera is full of meat
I was genuinely shocked it hit my flyover town. Glad it did tho

>its in a theatre near me
should i do it bro's? it would be the first non english spoken movie i'd go to in the theatres since the first pokemon movie
Yes.
I went to go see it at the same theater I saw the Pokemon movie at like over 20 years ago. The one where they gave out Ancient Mew.

I don't really care about fatzilla. Sorry esl.
why do girls like godzilla so much?
They don't. The opening day demo breakdown was 77% male.
The good news is that it was also like 5% black. The subtitles repel them, I guess.
jap women didn't go see it either. japan is full of morons
>jap women didn't go see it either
Hey great pic. Now look up the actual numbers you esl moron lmao
How about you go back to school and learn proper grammar amerimutt.

I watched it with my sister. It was fun
Show me the CGI
It's worse than the cgi in titanic released more than 20 years ago.
Number one movie in the US (on Monday)
>$1,225,396
Can proudly say I'm part of that . I'm that $6 at the end there. It was discount Tuesday!
I paid $21 for imax
Shame it was a bad movie though. Boring garbage.
you will only get excited to minors

Any way you parse it, it's not filling theaters at all. Probably won't even catch Shin Godzilla.
Interesting.
Cinemaphile usually acts like they're anti-Hollywood, but when Hollywood is actually mocked, some people try to cope it.
how long do I have to wait for a torrent
Several months at the minimum.
Post funny Godzilla webms or your mother will die in her sleep tonight
Real life Godzilla right here.
Godzilla Minus One is already on track to being one of the most popular and successful films of all time.
Yamazaki said he wanted to do a Gamera moive.
The frick would that be about?
He also says he wants to do Star Wars.
You know what? Let him, he'd breathe life into it
He has also long stated that he would like to make a live-action version of Nausicaa.
A man with many ambitions.

lol he's such a hypocritical old goat.
Miyazaki hated it because it wasn’t a movie about a 12 year old girl.

Just got back from seeing it. I can confirm that it’s kino.
Miyazaki is an angry old man.
No need to take what he says seriously.
Just watched it with my buddy and it exceed anything I had going in. Was great.
